Looking for further information on Amanda Jane CHRISTMAS. She married Jesse LOTT on 26 December 1894. She appears with her husband on both the 1900 and 1910 census enumerations in Jackson County. I remember a reference to her in 1917. Her husband is listed as a widow on the 1920 census. However, I am unable to find a death record or cemetery listing her. Does anyone have any further information on her?

I'm trying to locate descendents of either of these men. Their names appear on land records for Jackson County in 1857. I've been able to obtain some information on Knowles, but would like to obtain anything available on either of these men or their families. Thanks! Dale Cox

There is a Paul Joyner in Blountstown who is a retired preacher or evangelist. He might have information on this family. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Dr Rayburn N Joyner was born in 1912 in NC according to Ancestry.com - US Public Records Index 1930 Census. His father was Augustus V. age 51 born in NC. His mother is listed as Rena G.,age 42,. Teacher, born in NC. His father, Augustus V. Joyner is listed as a Baptist minister. Dr. Joyner's age in 1930 is on the census as 18. He has brothers and sisters listed also. He married Marie Rigdon in 1935 in Broward Co, FL. "Florida Marriage Collection - 1822-1875 and 1927-2001". Florida Dept of Health Volume 311, Cert 17455. Current records show Marie R. Joyner, 95, and Rayburn N. Joyner, 70, listed at 4262 Lafayette St, Marianna, FL, 32446. I don't know how recently the last information was posted. I hope this helps. I remembered his first name and his wife's name because my Mother worked with them at the hospital, and he was their family Doctor in Marianna. The Hospital was Jackson County Hospital. I believe this is the man for whom you are searching. Merle S Smith _wsmith1929@aol.com_ (mailto:wsmith1929@aol.com) ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

Camp Sumter (the POW camp), not Fort Sumter. BTW: Two of my 2-great grandparents, John English Autry, and his wife Mary McQuien, grew up about a mile south of Andersonville in Sumter County, Georgia. J.E. Autry, two of his brothers, and maybe a half brother, served in the 64th Georgia Infantry Regument, and another brother served in the Sumter Flying Artillery. J.E. and Mary, by oral history, lost their farm to carpetbggers, and moved to Decatur (now Grady) County, in 1869. They were missed by the censustaker in 1860, though, and I've never been sure where they were 1858-1869. I think, most likely Lee County, but that's really just an "edumicated" guess.

The pension records indicated that James H. Dupree enlisted in 1864. Seeing as he was living in or near Sumter County, GA at that time and Dykes Artillery was serving at Fort Sumter, that might explain how he came to enlist in that unit.

There was a general shakeup of Florida artillery units still in Florida around late 1863. If my memory serves me correctly, basically Robert H. Gamble's Leon Florida Artillery was essentially split in two, with one company coming to be known as Dykes and the other company being known as the Kilcrease Light Artillery. My great grandmother White's first husband, James M. Carter, who served in the 5th Florida Infantry Regiment, had a brother, Henry C. Carter, who served in Gamble's and ended up as artificer in the Kilcrease Light Artillery. But my 2-great grandfather John Shepard Haven had a son named Greenberry Haven who joined Gamble's at age 14, and when this split occurred he popped out of both of the new companies and landed in Charles Geddes Campbell's Independent Company of Georgia Siege Artillery, which garrisoned Confederate Fort Ward (a rebuild of the Spanish fort San Marcos de Apalachee), at St. Marks, Florida. Campbell had commanded Co. D of the 17th Georgia Infantry Regiment in Benning's Brigade, till he developed apoplexy and felt obliged to resign as an Infanry officer. Simultaneously with his resignation he requested to be commissioned an officer either of Cavalry or Artillery (so he could ride a horse), and he was commissioned a captain of artillery and assigned to this independent command. Campbell's unit used guns that had been removed from Fort Marion (Fort San Marcos in St. Augustine). ALL of these relatives of mine were from Decatur and Thomas Counties, in Georgia, and lived there at that time... though Herring Carter, Henry C. Carter's father, had lived briefly in Leon County, Florida. The Havens, father and son, both eventually moved to Jackson County, Florida. Greenberry had owned and operated several mills in Madison County, Florida, and with his brother (John) Henry Haven, founded the town of Lee (named after Robert E. Lee) in Madison County. Greenberry Haven was a Justice of the Peace in both Madison and Jackson counties, and so far as I know probably owned and operated a sawmill in Jackson County, though I have no specific information on that. HOWEVER, since the man in question later lived in Lee County... if he actually came from Lee County originally, I would strongly suspect that he was a "late enlistee" into Dykes Company, AFTER it was posted at Camp Sumter POW camp. Although Camp Sumter was located in Sumter County, Georgia, the location is within "spitting distance" of Lee County. You need to obtain and study in detail, his Compiled Confederate Service Record.

One of my probably unsolvable genealogical problems is finding the identity of my 3-great grandmother who was the first wife of Levi Butler, who was in Gadsden County Florida by 1830 (already married to her) and bought land there in the mid-1830s, making him an original Gadsden County landowner. My thoughts usually flow towards her maybe being a sister of George Washington Kemp who was an adjacent Gadsden County landowner. James D. (another James Daniel?... if so that would seem to blow this whole idea out of the water), one of Levi Butler's sons by his second wife, Nancy, married George W. and Mourning Kemp's daughter Georgia Kemp and ended up in southern Leon County, at Woodville. It's not unusual for a child by a second wife to marry a relative of a first wife... But another possibility lies in the name Daniel. Levi Butler's daughter by his first wife, Eliza E. Butler, married my 2-great grandfather John Hair. Their son James Daniel Haire was my great grandfather. I have always felt that his middle name, Daniel, could have been his grandmother's surname. Whoever she was, census records show that she was born in Florida around 1811. Were any of the Daniels here that early... particularly a James Daniel?

I'm sorry, I'm not sure of the first name. Was there more than one Dr. Joyner in Marianna, Fl in the late 30's early 40's? I think he practiced medicine at the Enzor Brothers Hospital in Crestview, FL. ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

A lot of these Daniel folk, or their offspring, went to Barbour and Dale County, Alabama in the 1830s. There was a Stephen Daniel Sr and a Jr in Jackson County for the 1821 property census. I think that most of the early Daniel folk in Jackson County is connected at some point to my Daniel line which came to Jackson County by 1824 in the form of Appellus Daniel. Appellus/Appolis Daniel is out of the Liberty and Burke County bunch - which are almost certainly from the line of John Daniel of Northampton County and then back to the Isle of Wight Daniel line before that. Lucy Gray knows a lot about Josiah and his descendants. If she is not watching this list (and I would be surprised) you can reach her on the Daniel list.
